Miguel Lopes - June 08, 2015 - 1 min read

With the market for mobile application development still maturing, the plethora of mobile development tools available to help address your enterprise app portfolio needs can be overwhelming. So, we took some time to really understand what tools are available, what categories they fall into, what stage of the development cycle they address, and what functions they perform.

The resulting reference architecture matrix (below) shows that you'll need a complex chain of interwoven point solutions to achieve enterprise mobility. It also illustrates how a rapid app delivery approach can offer dramatic speed improvements with streamlined full life cycle simplicity.

We also took this reference matrix one step further and built a complete architecture reference guide to help our community gain a better understanding of the mobile development tool landscape. I invite you to take a look at our matrix and download the full eBook to see all the options available for your development organization.
